I found that owning UAUA while perhaps was at a low was not worth anymore risk. I closed out all of UAUA except 2 that are covered with 4 15 Jun calls. took about -13K hit on that. I will add in the revenue if any from the calls when i sell or at exp. Oil just hit another high and with the slightest issue in the news I think could spike causing UAUA to drop in half again. Just having oil sit at the current price and UAUA could be in bad shape. UAUA was the last long I entered under the old signal setup rules.

Closed out all of GTI less 1 for a small profit.

Closed out ZOLT for a small profit.

S 2 more MMR @ 33.75
2059 @ 34.36



While it wasn't any fun taking the hit I did with UAUA looking back it appears I made the right choice based on the information available.

Short 4 GTI @ 3.86 swing trade

S:Brenton



It is easy to say so in the hindsight, but based on my experience TDSeq does not give correct indications of direction change for continuous trend ( unless you use 2days, or 3, or weekly for counts).

I probably did not read till the end of the thread, but anyways - I guess you know what I said above too, so - WHY GTI short on 5/15?
Thank you

S 2 FRO in after hours @ 68.97

Its a little bit lower than what I would like to enter into a short tomorrow but close enough to enter in a few shares.

Also bidding 68.38 to close as I will take a quick profit tonight if able.



Nice on on FRO - OIH holdings were flashing weekly sell all over Monday morning - so I just boarded quite a few jun210 puts at 10AM on monday. Sold to close most on Thursday - 100% - I'll take it anytime.

I agree with you about TDSeq and many other of DeMarks indicators not working out of the box. I think he could be more upfront about the indicators not being optimal.

I don't actually use any of his indicators but I do use and agree with the concept of fading to achieve greater results.

GTI was a swing trade that didn't act the way I expected so I cut and ran to keep the result small.

Hello David,

Very nicely done with your trade!

FRO was based off a new signal for swing trading.

I wish you a very good upcoming week. Will be great to get back at it.

Bob
